While it makes sense that the spinoff series might include some characters from the original show, this\u00a0<em>Yellowstone<\/em>\u00a0spinoff is slated to include not only Beth and Rip, but other main characters as well. To complicate this even more, this weekend\u2019s episode of\u00a0<em>Yellowstone\u00a0<\/em>has been\u00a0<strong>marketed as a season finale, rather than a series finale<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static1.colliderimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/yellowstone-514-kayce-rainwater.jpg\" alt=\"Kayce Dutton (Luke Grimes) makes a pact with Thomas Rainwater (Gil Birmingham) on 'Yellowstone'\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Another hangup could be reports that the\u00a0<strong>Beth and Rip show intends to include\u00a0<\/strong><em><strong>Yellowstone\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><strong>in the title<\/strong>. While the series\u2019 announcement did not call it\u00a0<em>Yellowstone\u00a0<\/em>season 6, including the mothership show\u2019s name in that of the new series might complicate the legality even more. It is still possible for Paramount+ to try to pivot in this respect, as they could easily remove\u00a0<em>Yellowstone\u00a0<\/em>from the title if that would avoid the legal battle.<\/p>\n<h2>Our Take On The Yellowstone Debacle<\/h2>\n<h3>Paramount+ May Have To Pivot Strategies<\/h3>\n<p>Given the shared name, season 5 marketing, and an abundance of common characters, it makes sense why NBCU might take issue with the new\u00a0<em>Yellowstone<\/em>\u00a0series\u2019 distinctness from the mothership.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static1.colliderimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/yellowstone-season-5-episode-9-gil-birmingham-mo-brings-plenty.jpg\" alt=\"Gil Birmingham and Mo Brings Plenty looking out at the land\" \/><\/p>\n<p>After all, the crux of this debate stems from the fact that the\u00a0<strong><em>Yellowstone<\/em><\/strong><em>\u00a0<\/em>name carries immense weight in the TV industry right now, as the Taylor Sheridan-created series continues to dominate streaming charts. This will likely force Paramount+ to either have to pivot strategies for the series significantly or allow Peacock to stream the new series, both of which might be undesirable for them.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Yellowstone\u2018s latest follow-up series could end up starting a legal battle between Paramount+ and Peacock.\u00a0Yellowstone\u00a0season 5 will come to an end this weekend, with an episode that was originally &hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"video","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[582],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12103","post","type-post","status-publish","format-video","hentry","category-yellowstone-verse","post_format-post-format-video"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12103","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=12103"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12103\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12215,"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12103\/revisions\/12215"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=12103"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=12103"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=12103"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
